more grove, less sauce.

 

for many years now - i think it first started in or around 1993 - i have been eating christmas day breakfast at the grove restaurant on denman street.

 
 the garbs wakes up and smells the sweet smells of the grove.

today was no different. what has become different is the the hollandaise sauce on the eggs florentine has become somewhat watery. last year it was looking like it was going that way...this year it's official - next year i'll be switching to something else, but as long as the grove is there and serving breakfast, i'll be there in the morning.
this year it was just me and the garbs hossing down on eggs and bad coffee. afterwards we went driving around admiring the empty streets and drinking better coffee.


my nice new rockmount shirt made it's debut at the grove this morning. 

i stopped by garvie's to have a look at what santa had brought fiona - holy cow! - and having a short visit before they headed out to tom and dorothy's for the next couple of days. i'll be heading out to issy's soon and hanging out there and maybe later, just maybe, going to see a retarded xmas blockbuster.

have fun today. drive safely.
